The distance a falling object falls in some amount of time is

        D = 1/2  a  T²

If this flowerpot falls off a balcony on Earth, then 'a' is the
acceleration of gravity on Earth, and we can write

      85 m  =  1/2 (9.8 m/s²) T²

Divide each side by  4.9 m/s² :

      85/4.9  s²  =  T²

Square root each side:

      T  =  √(85/4.9)  seconds

          =      4.165 seconds .

What is the frequency of microwaves of wavelength 3 cm?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

10 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf.................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of microwave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................ Equation 2

Note: Microwave is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave have the same speed, which is 3×10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Constant; v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3×10⁸/(0.03)

f = 10¹⁰ Hz

f = (10¹⁰/10⁹) GHz

f = 10 GHz

describe the forces acting on a car as it movies along a level highway in still air at a constant speed
Travka [436]

Answers

The car's forward motion is opposed by the friction between the road and the tires and by the resistance of the air.

HELP ASAP! <br>why is rolling friction much smaller than sliding friction? Also give an example.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.
